No idea you have the actalk library (you should be able to implement the paper of briot in one afternoon - we did this in the past as an experiment for somebody to learn smalltalk) and you could also port future from squeak but this is just the basis for On Jan 24, 2012, at 4:58 AM, vvernon wrote: > Was any progress made with this or any other Actors library? > > Thanks! > > Vaughn > > -- > View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Actors-library-tp3619729p4322838.html > Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. >

No, it uses the (proprietary) system spell checker of OS X. The original source code for the Smalltalk size is here: ftp://ftp.smalltalkconsulting.com/experimental/MacSpelling/JMMMacSpelling.1… The refactoring engine code critics integration just needs a small subset and thus implements those in its own class. If similar primitives are available for other platforms, they could be easily added. On startup the refactoring engine looks for the best available system or falls back to the Smalltalk one.

SpellingPlugin

Hi - Where can I read more about the SpellingPlugin thats included with the Mac VM? I'm hoping to learn whether it uses the hunspell library and if so whether the plugin can be made to run on linux, and if so can then be incorporated as the spell checker for the lint rules as well as for Seaside components/user input.

First steps making OB work in 1.4

by Guillermo Polito

Hi! I've been working the last days in making OB work in pharo 1.4. I updated several deprecations like method reference and stuff and discovered some bugs that I've already published in: http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=5189&q=milestone%3D1.4&cols… http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=5183&q=milestone%3D1.4&cols… I've already proposed some fixes for them, but if anyone can have a look too I'll feel better :). Those fixes are needed in order to load OB. Meanwhile, you can also have some patches from the cs and fileout I attach. What's working now? OB + OCompletion + Shout + Sunit integration. So, It's everything but Refactoring browser, which is a little more difficult since there is another RB version loaded in the image :P. To load it (after integrating the patches): Gofer it squeaksource: 'MetacelloRepository'; package: 'ConfigurationOfOmniBrowser'; load. (ConfigurationOfOmniBrowser project version: #stable) load: #( 'Core Tests' 'OCompletion Tests' ) , #( 'Core' 'OB-SUnitIntegration' 'OB-Shout' 'OCForOB'). Cheers, Guille
